Now, after seemingly years of study we find ourselves on the top, spinning around with plans for the final days of our stay here. Under the capable leadership of our President, Don Mayer, the class has planned many interesting activities. The Symposium is making its home for a few days at N. E. C. this year and the Seniors have eagerly prepared themselves to act as hosts and hostesses. The Strauss Ball, the greatest social event of the season for everyone at school, is to be bigger and better than ever before. Class Day frolics are being dis- cussed, planned, and anticipated with a great deal of en- thusiasm. Well, we seem to be at the end of a path, and we are looking toward a broad highway called the Future. Our years here at N. E. C. have been happy ones and we have made history within our own class. We will go on making names for ourselves throughout life and — who knows? — maybe our paths will cross again on Life ' s Highway.
